Burbank’s 77-year-old Smoke House is a time capsule with red leather booths, white tablecloths, a carpet that’s likely decades old, neon signs, and so much casual charm. The slow-roasted prime rib is the house specialty and is served au jus for a reasonable $42. In fact, the Smoke House’s menu is one of the best deals in town, especially the tri-tip sandwich for $22.

Richly marbled and perfectly cooked steaks are some of life's greatest pleasures. Thankfully, Los Angeles has no shortage of fantastic steakhouses, with top-tier restaurants serving inventive and classic cocktails and always delicious sides in addition to all kinds of grilled red meat. If classic chophouses, modern beef palaces, or spots that serve dashes of Japanese flavors, here are 14 feast-worthy steakhouses in Los Angeles.

Part butcher shop-part restaurant, Gwen is chef Curtis and brother Luke Stone’s Hollywood meat sanctuary, which earned a Michelin star in 2022 for its overall excellence. The upscale steakhouse has more of a fine-dining feel with dishes like Josper-grilled squid with Thai chile or lobster tortellini leading into dry-aged cuts that are butchered on the premises.

” Since 1949, the Golden Bull has served stellar chops in an old-school dining room with serious Mad Men vibes, stiff drinks, and friendly service. Golden Bull is also one of the few places on the Westside that serves prime rib roast every night. "That's where I learned how to play Ms. Pac-Man, pinball and Galaxy," said Katherine Jeschke, who spent part of her youth in Lowake when her late father, Mike, managed the cotton gin.

A little over 10 years ago, Chi Spacca became LA’s first meat-curing facility to be certified by the Department of Public Health. This Italian restaurant specializes in bistecca Fiorentina, a 50-ounce dry-aged prime porterhouse. For those intimidated by that massive size, there’s the crostata alla Fiorentina, a prime dry-aged, bone-in New York steak that registers only 36 ounces. Spacca is an intimate space for those going all-out on the meats. Don’t forget to share the famous focaccia di recco to start, a cheesy flatbread perfected by chef Nancy Silverton. Backed by heavy hitters like Dr. Dre and NBA legend Jerry West, this Sherman Oaks steakhouse opened in November 2023.

The wines and cocktails are also exemplary, but the real differentiator at Gwen is the service. Chef David LeFevre’s midcentury modern steakhouse uses a white oak grill to deliver outstanding steaks in Manhattan Beach. The Arthur J steak menu falls into two primary categories — USDA prime and certified Angus — though one can also score a deluxe Japanese wagyu beef rib-eye cap. Every night features a nightly special, including a veal parmesan on Wednesdays and comforting beef stroganoff on Mondays.

Beverly Grove’s Carlitos Gardel features Argentinian-grilled USDA prime steaks at exceptionally reasonable prices. Opt for the parrillada plate, as it comes with skirt steak, short ribs, sausages, and sweetbreads for a sampling of everything grilled and glorious. Of the 20oz and good 1/3 or more way fat- not just one the ends but throughout. Talked with the manager on duty and he said they don’t trip the ends on ribeyes. So I don’t recommend ribeyes but the tenderloins and filets are always good.

Or opt for the 45-day dry-aged wagyu tomahawk that should feel the entire table. In Redondo Beach, this elegant steakhouse does beef exceedingly well with a wood-fried sear on the outside while maintaining a juicy, tender core. Chef Walter Nunez assembles a crowd-pleasing menu of clams casino, gnocchi with lobster, and lamb shank doused in rosemary. The main draw is an eight-ounce filet, bone-in tomahawk, but the wagyu flight showcasing two-ounce portions from the US, Australia, and Japan is equally great. On the second floor of the towering Intercontinental Hotel in Downtown LA is chef Shin Thompson’s meat emporium serving high-end yakiniku and omakase for Japanese beef aficionados.

House Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green agreed, noting that he was disappointed in today’s foreign aid bill votes, but that he still won’t support removing Johnson. The measure received unanimous support from Democrats, while Republicans were split. Among House GOP leadership, Whip Tom Emmer, Speaker Mike Johnson and Majority Leader Steve Scalise voted for Ukraine aid, while Conference Chair Elise Stefanik voted against it. Failed to become speaker after three floor votes, facing increasing opposition from his own party in each vote. Most recently, Representative Tom Emmer of Minnesota, the No. 3 House Republican, withdrew his bid for the speakership just hours after winning a closed-door vote.

"Students should not have to risk their reputation, livelihoods or their safety to speak out against a genocide or their university’s complicity in genocide," CAIR-NY’s Executive Director Afaf Nasher said in a statement. Rallies and encampments have sprung up on campuses from California to Massachusetts this week, sometimes prompting police intervention, as was the case Wednesday at the University of Texas in Austin and at the University of Southern California. The protesters are calling for an end to U.S. military support for Israel and for eliminating Israeli investments. Caitlin Yilek is a politics reporter at cbsnews.com and is based in Washington, D.C. She previously worked for the Washington Examiner and The Hill, and was a member of the 2022 Paul Miller Washington Reporting Fellowship with the National Press Foundation. The rebellion puts Johnson's job at risk if Democrats don't step in to save him if the group of hardliners forces a vote. Johnson said earlier this week that if he hadn't moved forward with his plan, an effort to bypass him and force a vote on the Senate bill would have gained more support.

Even by the heated standards of the tensions that flared among House Republicans during their four-day push to elect a speaker, what happened on the House floor around 11 p.m. Mr. McCarthy agreed to allow a single lawmaker to force a snap vote at any time to oust the speaker, a rule that he had previously refused to accept, regarding it as tantamount to signing the death warrant for his speakership in advance. Mr. Gaetz refused to budge, and Mr. McCarthy’s allies moved to adjourn the House until Monday, crestfallen after a defeat they had not anticipated. Republicans quickly switched their votes to oppose the adjournment and proceeded to a 15th speaker vote, which ended well after midnight. Friday night, Mr. McCarthy remained one vote short of what he needed to seal the deal.

Jordan must pick up most of the GOP holdouts to reach the 217 majority threshold. Jordan lost 25 Republicans in the third round of voting, falling short yet again with 194 votes, compared to 210 for Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Twenty-five Republicans voted for various other candidates, including McCarthy, Majority Leader Steve Scalise and Speaker Pro Tempore Patrick McHenry. Six of the eight Republican candidates for House speaker voted to decertify the 2020 presidential election on Jan. 6, 2021, in the hours after the assault on the U.S. Following his win, the Republican conference held a roll call vote to gauge Emmer's support. Roughly 20 GOP lawmakers voted no on the Minnesota Republican's speaker bid, according to Rep. Nicole Malliotakis of New York.

McCarthy allies, foes huddle as GOP scrambles to find a House speaker

House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries is calling on Republicans to work with Democrats to elect a speaker. Rep. Jim Jordan lost 20 Republican votes Tuesday in his first round of balloting for House speaker, creating an uphill climb to win the gavel. Jordan lost 20 Republican votes in the first round, and in the final count, he ended up with 200 votes, leaving him shy of the 217 needed for a majority.

Not every Republican involved in blocking Mr. McCarthy’s ascension was among those who voted against certifying Mr. Biden’s victory. Other hard-right holdouts who for days have refused to vote for Mr. McCarthy were Representatives Matt Gaetz of Florida, Lauren Boebert of Colorado and Andy Harris of Maryland. All three met with Mr. Trump or White House officials as they discussed how to fight the election results, according to evidence gathered by the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack.

The divisions playing out in the Capitol this week have posed problems for Kevin McCarthy at home, too.

The White House offered reaction to the House Republicans’ continued failure to elect a speaker after another loss for Rep. Jim Jordan Friday, calling out the “chaotic infighting” on the other side of Pennsylvania Avenue. The House of Representatives on Tuesday afternoon narrowly voted to remove Speaker Kevin McCarthy from his position. Rep. Juan Ciscomani, R-Ariz., a first-term member, said that after having several conversations with Jordan, he’s decided to vote for him on the floor. Jordan was spotted heading into the speaker’s office, about a half hour before the vote was expected to start. A handful of Republicans are still opposed to Jordan, but his allies think they will break from their opposition as they go through multiple rounds and come under intense pressure to elect a speaker. Arriving to the vote Tuesday, former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy told reporters that he believes Jordan can clinch the gavel on the first ballot.

Ukraine, Israel aid advances in rare House vote as Democrats help Republicans push it forward

“We went through a lot to get here, but we are ready to govern and that will begin right away,” Johnson says in his first news conference as speaker. A bloc of Republicans had objected to the speaker bid of Representative Jim Jordan of Ohio, the hard-right co-founder of the Freedom Caucus, because of his role in helping lead Mr. Trump’s efforts to overturn the election. Evoking his evangelical Christian faith, Mr. Johnson repeatedly referred to scripture in his speech from the House floor.

That was effectively the same as the first round, when McCarthy won 203 votes to Jeffries’ 212 votes, and 19 other votes were scattered among a few GOP alternatives. The second round resulted in 203 votes for McCarthy, 212 for Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., and 19 Republican votes that went to Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio. Kevin McCarthy and Jim Jordan faced off again in the third round of voting for House speaker. Democrat Hakeem Jeffries of New York won 212 votes again, also short of the 218 needed to win the gavel. The move gives McCarthy and members of the House Freedom Caucus some much-needed breathing space to find some agreement on how to elect a speaker.

It was a victory for the strategy Johnson set in motion this week after he agonized for two months over the legislation. The primary challenge comes as tensions remain high between Gaetz and Kevin McCarthy, months after the former speaker was ousted from his post with the help of Gaetz. Allies of McCarthy have been working to recruit challengers to Gaetz, the Washington Post reported.

After the Republican conference meeting ended, Johnson spoke briefly to reporters and said that his intention is to go the House floor Wednesday for a noon vote. He did not disclose the tally of the roll call vote in the conference to gauge support for his nomination, but said he was "very confident" he could win the 217 GOP votes he needs to win the speaker's gavel on the House floor. The third nominee, Majority Whip Tom Emmer, dropped out of the Republican race for speaker just four hours after he was elected Tuesday. He failed to persuade far-right members of the conference to support him on the floor. House Democratic leaders on Tuesday morning urged all their members to stay on the floor throughout the day until members elect a new House speaker, a move that will make it tougher for the GOP to win a majority vote for Kevin McCarthy or anyone else who might emerge.

Entering the sixth vote on Wednesday, Rep.-elect Kat Cammack of Florida accused Democrats of sitting by with "popcorn and blankets and alcohol," drawing boos from the left. Now in its fourth day, the process has lengthened out to 12 failed votes without a clear end in sight.

McCarthy cites progress, says he prefers no more votes Wednesday night

The 11th vote for House speaker late Thursday was on track to yield another non-decision, as more than five Republicans voted for someone other than Kevin McCarthy. Asked whether he'd change his vote Thursday should the chamber continue their rounds of votes, Norman said, "I'm voting for Byron Donalds." Rep.-elect Kevin McCarthy has so far not been able to strike a deal with about 20 Republican holdouts who have voted for other members of the GOP during 11 rounds of balloting over three days. "I’m never getting sworn in am I?" Rep-elect Mary Peltola, D-Alaska, tweeted Thursday afternoon, as members were anticipating another round of votes. It won’t be easy, automatic or immediate, according to House lawmakers who themselves were processing the information in real time as details of the deal emerged. But a written framework for rules in the 118th Congress was released on Thursday that McCarthy's allies hope will allow many of the GOP lawmakers who have been voting against McCarthy all week to eventually support him.

Republican Rep.-elect Spartz votes "present" after previously backing McCarthy

Last call came, before the Republicans voted to go to a 15th ballot instead of adjourning — an unexpected opportunity for another viewing party. Even before the votes had been secured, many at the bar seemed convinced that electing a speaker was inevitable as the vote drew closer to a close. Pats on the back and smiles were exchanged, and many turned their attention away from the TVs. The dramatic moment was captured on C-SPAN’s video cameras, which, lacking the typical restraints placed upon them in a House with a speaker, were free to show whatever moments from the floor its operators deemed newsworthy. The vitriolic attack on the top candidate for speaker from a member of his own party led some of Mr. McCarthy’s supporters to walk off the House floor while he spoke. And by the end of the day, with the majority of the detractors finally coalescing around Mr. McCarthy, Mr. Gaetz appeared to have softened his tone.

That would lower the threshold for McCarthy and could potentially help him win the Speakership – depending on WHO is absent. A Wisconsin Republican congressman-elect blasted Rep.-elect Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., for "dragging" out the speaker fight to fundraise off of it. Members were still missing two votes on the final tally and it appears McCarthy is a single vote shy of winning. With Republicans having 222 members in the chamber, McCarthy could only afford four defectors. The result seemed to surprise McCarthy and his team, many of whom started an intense discussion with Gaetz in an apparent attempt to sway him to change his vote to one in support of McCarthy. But with only 432 votes cast, the McCarthy needed 217 to clinch it, and fell short by a single vote.

Johnson played a leading role in efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

If McCarthy allies are trying to adjourn, that means they didn’t make enough progress to wrangle the votes or improve McCarthy’s status. It also means that the endorsement by former President Trump didn’t move the meter. If all McCarthy supporters vote for the motion, they would need at least some help from Democrats or some of the anti-McCarthy forces to pass the motion. "A big part of the reason this is playing out is because the election was disappointing," Cruz said.

Kevin McCarthy late Friday failed to succeed in his 14th bid for House speaker after indicating confidence in a victory and two of his GOP opponents appeared to clear the way for a victory by voting "present." The motion to adjourn ultimately failed with 155 Republicans voting to adjourn, while 67 Republicans and all 212 Democrats voting to remain in session and hold another Speaker vote. Republicans now believe he has the support he needs to win and all eyes are on Rep-elect Matt Gaetz. With a 15th and final vote late Friday evening, the House of Representatives appears to be on the path to electing Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., to be its next House Speaker.

One of the bills coming up would crack down on antisemitism by forcing the government to adopt a definition that has been criticized for equating condemnation of Israel with prejudice against Jews. The top House Democrat, Hakeem Jeffries, wrote to the Republican speaker, Mike Johnson, asking him to hold a vote on a different piece of legislation that has bipartisan support – we’ll see if that goes anywhere. Speaking of Johnson, all eyes are on Marjorie Taylor Greene, the far-right congresswoman who is attempting to boot him from the speaker’s post for his collaboration with Democrats. But a Jordan speakership would also come with baggage that could present a challenge to Republicans as they labor to hold their House majority in next year’s election, an effort that will likely hinge on drawing support from moderate voters in swing districts.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., stressed "unity" during a press conference on Thursday, but pivoted when asked about comments from a Democrat in his caucus who called Republican Rep.-elect Byron Donalds a "prop" earlier in the week. Hern has previously stated he backs House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy for speaker. He received two votes in the eighth round despite not being officially nominated. The nomination of Hern, R-Okla., in the ninth round of votes is in addition to other GOP-alternative nominee Rep.-elect Byron Donalds. "The colleagues that I brought with me to offer those 218 votes on the first ballot aren't there anymore. It is not happening. And as it's been said, we need to get to a point where we start evaluating what life after Kevin McCarthy looks like," she said on the floor. The ninth vote ties the number of votes needed in 1923 to decide on a speaker – 2023 will now exceed that, as a 10th vote will be needed at least.

With the GOP’s slim majority in the House, McCarthy can only afford to lose four members of his caucus, so it’s unclear if this deal will give him the speakership. The House of Representatives held three votes on Tuesday, three votes on Wednesday and five votes on Thursday, but each failed to have a candidate reach the 218-vote threshold to lead the chamber. Lawmakers said the framework gives members of the House Freedom Caucus (HFC) who have been resisting McCarthy virtually everything they’ve been asking for.

Shortly after Emmer was elected as the GOP's nominee for speaker, several conservative lawmakers publicly announced plans to vote against him when the House convenes for a formal floor vote. An earlier version of this article misstated the number of votes Representative Mike Johnson of Louisiana received in House Republicans’ internal election to choose a speaker nominee. Any candidate for speaker can lose only a handful of votes and still win the speakership because Republicans hold such a small majority in the House. In a secret-ballot vote on Tuesday night, Mr. Johnson got 128 votes, with 44 Republicans voting for nominees not on the ballot, including 43 for Mr. McCarthy, whom many view as unfairly ousted. Still, in a separate vote afterward, only a few Republicans indicated they would not back Mr. Johnson on the floor, while about 20 Republicans were absent. On the eve of the Jan. 6 votes, Mr. Johnson had honed his arguments undermining the election to be more palatable.

After three days and 11 votes, the House of Representatives has still not elected a new speaker for the 118th Congress. Rep.-elect Wesley Hunt, R-Texas, confirmed to Fox News he will not be in Washington, D.C., for speaker votes Friday. McCarthy flipped 14 votes to his side for the first time in the first Friday vote. Rep.-elect Victoria Spartz, R-Ind., switched her vote from present to McCarthy. Rep.-elect Byron Donalds, R-Fla., flipped his vote Friday to support Kevin McCarthy's bid for House speaker, and told Fox News Digital that he trusts McCarthy will "do the job necessary to lead" the GOP conference and the chamber.

Jordan’s supporters are confident that the public floor vote will force the remaining holdouts to flip their way. Kevin McCarthy narrowly won the speakership in January on the 15th round of balloting, after five excruciating days. GOP lawmakers are expected to rally their votes behind Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, to be the next speaker despite reluctance from some who are wary of his hardline approach.

Representative Jim Jordan of Ohio, a founder of the hard-right House Freedom Caucus and someone Mr. Johnson has described as a mentor, was the next member to be elected speaker designate in a secret ballot. He had Mr. Trump and the far right in his corner, but ultimately failed to win over more centrist members of his party who steadfastly refused to support him. In Congress, Mr. Johnson has voted for a national abortion ban and co-sponsored a 20-week abortion ban, earning him an A-plus rating from the anti-abortion group Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America. After the Supreme Court voted to overturn Roe v. Wade in June last year, he celebrated.

After days of contention over stopgap spending measures to avert a federal shutdown, Mr. McCarthy, with the support of more than 200 Democrats, managed on Saturday to pass a continuing resolution to keep the government funded through mid-November. As they’d promised to do, hard-right Republicans, led by Representative Matt Gaetz of Florida, called for Mr. McCarthy to be removed from his post, culminating on Monday evening, when Mr. Gaetz filed the ultimately successful resolution to declare the speakership vacant. The House is scheduled to start voting at noon in what could become a showdown for the gavel.

If McCarthy can’t secure enough votes, it’s not clear who could, though some Republican members have floated the possibility of working with Democrats to elect a moderate speaker. The House’s failure to elect a speaker on the first three ballots throws into chaos the beginning of a divided government in Washington, delaying the swearing-in of members of the House, GOP committee assignments and votes on the rules that will govern the new Congress. Rebellious Republicans who had voted for alternatives in the first round of balloting voted in unison the second time around for Jordan, who also picked up Donalds’ support in the third round. The House speaker election hasn’t required multiple ballots in a floor vote since 1923, when Rep. Frederick Gillett (R-Mass.) was elected on the ninth ballot. According to the House historian, every speaker election that went more than three rounds lasted at least nine, with one going to 133 ballots in the mid-1800s. Nineteen Republicans voted for candidates other than McCarthy on the first and second ballots.

He told reporters Johnson had 84 votes, and 31 votes were cast for other candidates. Reps. Roger Williams of Texas and Mark Green of Tennessee are no longer in contention for the speaker nomination after the second round of votes by Republicans. Johnson, a former radio host from Louisiana, was first elected to Congress in 2016. Rep. Mike Johnson won on the final ballot for GOP speaker, defeating Rep. Byron Donalds, according to a tweet by Rep. Elise Stefanik. McCarthy, who was not a nominee, received 43 votes, and there was one other vote of "present." Johnson, who was first elected to Congress in 2016, voted against certifying the 2020 presidential election results.

Once you do start upgrading burgage plots, though, the families on that plot will expect two kinds of food to be available from then on. And if your town can’t supply that, they’ll start to get unhappy, which lowers your approval and slows down your town’s growth as well as makes your militias lose morale. Regional Wealth is basically how much cash your town’s families have on hand. Confusingly, it doesn’t have anything to do with your town’s marketplace. Instead, as the name implies, it’s about wealth instead of just money and that wealth comes from either exporting surplus goods or just from upgrading burgage plots. Think of burgage plots as mixed-used zoning where your town’s families will build houses and workshops.

Manor Lords is one of the more infrastructure-intensive city builders out there. For example, let’s say you want to start producing yarn — not even clothes, just yarn. You’ll need a livestock trader, a sheep farm, and a weaver’s workshop at a minimum. But each part of that process requires a family to be assigned to the building(s), and families require burgage plots to live on.

According to HomeLight’s report, 39% of agents are more heavily promoting the sale of newly constructed homes. Additionally, skyrocketing insurance rates in California and other markets have led to homebuyers looking to save money wherever they can, opting for new construction homes. If buyers can’t find a turnkey home, they sometimes decide the best bet is to “build from the ground up,” said Aballi. It’s a never-ending tug-of-war between house hunters seeking a place to live and others looking for investment properties. Low homebuying affordability puts a focus on investors — especially big-money giants — and their role in rising home prices. High home prices compounded by high mortgage rates translate to lofty monthly mortgage payments that easily exceed the cost of being a renter.

This involved stripping back walls, reorganising the ground-floor bedrooms and creating a "grand main hall" on the first floor with an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, Tuckey Design Studio said.

If you’re running low on anything, you might have to time your upgrade around when supplies hit the marketplace. As these get built, build a vegetable garden on each, and then build the expanded living space. The garden takes no time to create, but the second house takes a while, so doing the garden first means you get plants in the ground without having to wait. These two backyard vegetable gardens will supply enough vegetables for your town for a long time. Starting with the road around (or near) your marketplace, draw out two burgage plots that are wide enough for expanded living space on each plot (this should cost 4 timber total).

In addition to simply requiring less building materials, they are typically more energy efficient compared to square homes. Circular homes are also more resistant to hurricanes and extreme weather, as wind blows around them, diverting a buildup of pressure on one side. Whether you’re looking to bring the California style to another region or looking to move to San Francisco and build a home, we have a plan for you.

Doug Fox is a project manager at Fullcast, a Silicon Slopes-based end-to-end RevOps platform that allows companies to design, manage and track the performance of their revenue-generating teams. In a first-of-its-kind partnership, the Navajo Nation has announced a total of $74 million in grants to ZenniHome. The grants include $50 million from the Navajo Nation’s Community Housing and Infrastructure Department to provide a minimum of 250 ZenniHome units to high-need residents across the Navajo Nation. By leveraging the power of artificial intelligence and data analytics, smart homes can adapt to occupants’ preferences and environmental conditions to maximize efficiency and comfort.

You can save a lot of time and money if you design a house plan yourself. Many local authorities require a house blueprint together with the permit application. If you have already designed the house layout, it is relatively quick for an architect to finalize the home plan and convert it into a house blueprint. With your own house plan design, the architect isn’t starting from scratch and you have a good idea of your dream home design already. Whether your level of expertise is high or not, EdrawMax Online makes it easy to visualize and design any space.

The next step is a Small Town, but, for the next round of upgrades, you’ll have to set up a lot more infrastructure. You’ll need a stonecutter camp, clay from a mining pit that gets turned into rooftiles at a clay furnace, and a farm for barley along with a malthouse, brewery, and tavern. And you’ll have to turn one of your burgage plots (level 2) into a cobbler. Once your first two plots upgrade to burgage plot (level 2), you’ll get another development point. The heavy plow is a safe bet here if you’re looking to get into farming (and have fertile land available), but trapping is another good option since it increases the supply of meat to your town. Our Manor Lords town-building guide will walk you through taking a settlement from the start of a game, through the village settlement levels all the way up to a (small) town.

Dr. Phil’s Oasis: The Outdoor Area

Jack Flemming covers luxury real estate for the Los Angeles Times. A Midwestern boy at heart, he was raised in St. Louis and studied journalism at the University of Missouri. Before joining The Times as an intern in 2017, he wrote for the Columbia Missourian and Politico Europe. To be able to visit people where they live, sit at their table, have dinner with them, spend days with them, see them in their natural habitat was a very rich experience for me. I think it's going to be a great experience for people to watch; to see the dynamics of what's going on.

Equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, marble countertops, a massive island, and bar-style seating, the kitchen is a chef’s dream. Phil McGraw known as Dr. Phil, the renowned TV personality and psychologist, lives in a blunting house located in the prestigious neighborhood of Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, with his wife Robin. Phil and Robin went above and beyond with their Christmas decorations in 2021. The power couple quite literally decked the halls with enormous Christmas trees, wreaths, giant teddy bears and garland.

Though, Dr. Phil did live with his family in Texas before they made the big move to LA to begin filming his show. At the time, the younger McGraw described the property, which he shared with several bandmates and a girlfriend, as the perfect place to relax by playing pool or one of several in-house pinball machines. They also worked at the piano and recorded at their home studio. Jordan McGraw, a 28-year-old pop musician who is currently on tour with the Jonas Brothers, is selling the Beverly Hills estate for $5.75 million. It's still unclear who will purchase the home, but in the meantime, social media users had plenty of thoughts about its decor.

Dr. Phil is filmed in Los Angeles along with other projects he's a part of, including his podcast Phil in the Blanks. There's even an Instagram post about the podcast that is tagged in LA. Then there's the gun-filled dining room, which contains a wall holding at least a dozen weapons. However, a spokesperson for the "Dr. Phil" show told CNN that those decorations were actually part of an anti-gun art installation.

So my belief, personally, is that I think he does want to be, to an extent, a political player. After all, you don’t launch two-hour news programs also while launching a network without having some sort of ambition to become a player in politics or media or something. Now, as far as I have seen, there isn’t a way to already access it just yet. But I think your question sort of relates to, you know, what’s actually going to be shown.

Now, it’s funny enough, I think something that is interesting, though, that he did tell me, is that he doesn’t want this to be a siloed sort of program or network. You know, the news is going to be shot like right next door to where Dr. Phil prime time is shot – literally like a few steps away. A handful of outdoor entertaining spaces round out the property. There’s a flagstone patio with a pool and spa, a chandelier-topped dining pavilion and a lounge with a fireplace.

I asked him directly, and he said that he has no interest in that because he’s got a lot more freedom from the outside than he does from the inside trying to make some sort of difference. Dr. Phil is a trained psychologist, although his license to practice expired in 2006.

I guess the bigger thing here really is like, what is the the goal behind this? And if you’re going to take McGraw at his word, this is all about launching a 24/7 network that is down the middle and gives you the facts, and nothing but that. Irving Mejia-Hilario, business reporter for the Dallas Morning News, visited the new studios to learn more about McGraw’s Texas television venture.

These are just a few of the features found inside the extravagant Los Angeles mansion that TV host Dr. Phil McGraw purchased in 2007. The house, which is now listed for sale, is sparking a wave of confusion online, after the Los Angeles Times uncovered photos of its beyond-eccentric interior. The property is listed by Beverly Hills real estate firm Hilton & Hyland. Highlights include a spiral staircase adorned with tangled roots, a full bar with chairs that look like tree stumps, and a dramatic dining room with black floors and a wall of assault rifles. We know that finding the right doctor or provider is important to your health.
